[MOD] The Playground - Tribute to the beginings of HMT/HHT

Post by Pepsi »

sit back for a minute..

remember back when you first discovered HMT and modding halo? remember all the questions on can i make this shoot this, drive this like that. remember making stunt nades or boosting your RL to shoot 20 rockets at once? remember all the fun silly times just bouncing vehicles across the maps and shooting your teamates wasting away hours enjoying halo in the simplest form...

no kw..
no leetspeak "OMG I KEEL JOO" talk..
no worries on hackers..

team pepness was thinking and reminiscing on that too. back when we first got HMT and made hogs leave flame trails. swapping meta on anything. just exploring and testing and trying to avoid mr. exception. then HHT came to us. it was like a quick fix for doing things simply. then you explored dependency's. what if MC was a hog? or a shee?

man... funny times.. good memorys...

we wanted to make something to honor thoes fun and silly times when HMT and HHT was new to us. we took the grandpapa of all levels BG of course and made our own little playground. something to have fun, kick back, and go back to thoes carefree times again. back when things were simple.

this mod isnt to be taken as a serious mod on the technical end of things but a tribute to how most of us began modding, or at least us. doing stunts and changing whatever we could to see what we could make what do what. like when the warthog speed was 0.012345 and its like "just make it 1 ROFL!!". yeah.. thoes days..

so team pepness releases what we started out doing in modding when we began like alot of others....

the playground is a modded BG stripped naked to its rawest form to most. hardly nothing is untouched. heres a short list on what is involved here...

pistol shoots masterchiefs
sniper shoots fuelrod
ar shoots rockets
RL shoots 50 rockets at once
shotgun fires 15 frag nades at once
flamer shoots plas nades
tank sped up
rockethog sped up
chain hog with pelican attributes
ghost is more faster/responsive and sits higher
chain gun shoots plasnades
no falling damage
no airbourne damage
all nades on a 10 second delay
banshee faster with super rapid fire
unlimited rockets on rocket hog/no reload
fuel rod shoot flags/fuel
plasma rifle no overheat/shoots fuel rod rapid fire
scenery removed for easy play
tank shoots needles 10 at once rapid fire/no reload

think thats it? you find the rest. i cant remember everything.

screens?

this mod does by accidental chance have models in it from other modders in the community. credits are as followed...

-Ted-: the halo2 plasma rifle
Mr_Black: the deagle pistol
Pacifica: halo2 sniper, halo2 shotgun

in the download is a custom gametype to get the best from this mod and the bloodgulch.map file. just install the gametype in your savegames folder and swap the map file.

the download: http://pepness.com/Mods/Playground/PepN ... ground.rar

so if your bored and want to have a little fun with some simple but reminiscent modding memorys then give this a try. like i said, it isnt ment to show anything outstanding or too technical. but back when modding was simple and thrill of you being able to change a few things in halo ment the world to you and your game.

thanks for reading and thanks halomods for inspiring this.

thx guys it means alot seriously. alot of modding these days are spent on pmi and ce and just making well balanced mods and thoes by far is where modding is now and im scared to think of the future with the talent alot of people here possess. my main thing i like in modding is making things more visual. more appealing without taking halo's flavor away you know. when i played halo at a friends house and seen stock halo it wasnt the same to me. looked bland. so i like to find ways to make things visually appealling like what we did in the pepness project.

but yea, thanks for all the good feedback. ill try to work on something new soon but time will tell i guess.

Not to be mean, but, pardon? Okay mod, never played it, so it might be fun.

corvette19 - see, thats why i hate posting alot of stuff here sometimes. yeah its a projectile swap mod. like 90% of it is. did anyone not get the fact its a homage to the beginings of hmt and modding? maybe if i added a few logs it would have helped? ... rofl!!! and no i guess i dont get flamed to much cause im not hiding the fact im new to modding and such. my primary workings revolve around PS and vegas. i could make a kickbutt skin for a pelican but i couldnt pmi it in BG.

ice link/ceberus0 - does it really?! oops is all i can say on that one. my bad.

peterblue - think outside the box. even simple meta swaps can be cool if they are done for a purpose. this wasnt ment to be groundbreaking. the biggest thing groundbreaking ive been involved in was trying to make the delorian from back to the future as a warthog. a basic model was done and it needed it be skined but the model guy PIPBOY left halo for WoW and this got dropped. heres a beta pic of it.
